Talk about missing the entire point.

There is much talk amongst the cable chattering class that the jihadis who had their tickets punched with a .45 ACP Glock in capable hands either did, or did not, operate on the orders of ISIS Central. What stupidity. In the era of Fourth Generation Warfare they are missing the entire point. 4GW COUNTS ON not having to rely on command and control channels that can easily be disrupted. What are they worried about? Making a LEGAL case against the current ISIS Caliph? 4GW is a war of weaponized ideas and targeted actions versus the enemy's will to resist. IT IS IMMATERIAL WHETHER ANY ORDERS WERE ISSUED OR COMMANDS WERE GIVEN. Welcome to 4GW, where the threat is anywhere and everywhere.

I presume you mean after the first shot is fired by their side, correct?

I personally do not see shooting journalists going over well for us. They might be slanted and crooked, but does that deserve a wartime death? I say no, let them dance the hangman's jig after they've been given their chance in court.

I'm not so sure making targets of the media will win friends there. More likely, they will see the collectivists as their protectors.

On the other hand, if we wait for the collectivists to turn on the media (which they will eventually) and then the media see that the only thing that can save them from beast is the 2A, then they will start forming a different opinion.

I think our commander in chief would rather not hear about this 4GW stuff.CALL IT "WORKPLACE VIOLENCE" AND KEEP AMERICANS OBLIVIOUS (and thus passive) TO THE WARS THAT RAGE AROUND THEM!!!You can not do everything in your power to turn a citizenry into a helpless, defenseless, harmless mass and then get them riled up that they are under attack!(Somewhere along the line if Americans become aware of Islamic attacks on US soil, that may lead to a sudden rash, rave, "fad of the day" of arming themselves, giving them the thought that it is a GOOD thing to own a battle rifle with a collection of 30 round magazines, voting out Progressive Socialists who are repealing the Second Amendment, and restoring TRADITIONAL AMERICAN VALUES instead of the progressive globalist socialist political correct thought control that has been being rammed down our throats)TOO MANY AMERICANS HAVE BEEN TURNED INTO OBLIVIOUS FOOLS WITH THEIR HEADS SHOVED UP THEIR SMARTPHONE!

Mike V, This is a heads up comment for you, post it it not that's your choice obviously...but it's meant for you.

A few things about missing the point - I've had three instances of serious gut check on the false flag front regarding the foiled attack in Texas. I set them mostly aside until now, I just saw a picture of the carbine used by one of the Moslems and I noticed the "arm brace" factor. I've not seen anyone point to it or talk about it.

A bit CONVENIENT to have such a "controversial" unit just all of a sudden used as part of a "assault rifle" terrorist event....wouldn't ya say?

I just thought you might make some "interesting" observations regarding it and take note of it at least -seeing as how I AM BETTING THE FARM that we witness the arm brace "used in a terrorist attack" data point touted somewhere in the future (possibly the coming SCOTUS challenge to GCA/NFA......

We're violating one of W. C. Fields' cardinal rules here. The one that goes: "never smarten up a chump."

Let them build their Maginot line and congratulate themselves on owning the stuff that's irrelevant to 4GW. Plenty of time for us to teach them how it was done at the peace negotiations.

"But America's fighting forces did not fail us. 'You know, you never beat us on the battlefield,' I told my North Vietnamese counterpart during negotiations in Hanoi a week before the fall of Saigon. He pondered that remark a moment and then replied, 'That may be so, but it is also irrelevant.' "

In regards to the arm brace...Logic would say, the two attackers were neutralized very quickly, the arm brace gave them no advantage, so forget it. BUT, you are right. Flight 800 blew up because of wiring, however, we still have to show ID to use commercial air travel, because of wiring?

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

On the efficacy of passive resistance in the face of the collectivist beast. . .

Had the Japanese got as far as India, Gandhi's theories of "passive resistance" would have floated down the Ganges River with his bayoneted, beheaded carcass. -- Mike Vanderboegh.

In the future . . .

When the histories are written, “National Rifle Association” will be cross-referenced with “Judenrat.” -- Mike Vanderboegh to Sebastian at "Snowflakes in Hell"

"Smash the bloody mirror."

If you find yourself through the looking glass, where the verities of the world you knew and loved no longer apply, there is only one thing to do. Knock the Red Queen on her ass, turn around, and smash the bloody mirror. -- Mike Vanderboegh

From Kurt Hoffman over at Armed and Safe.

"I believe that being despised by the despicable is as good as being admired by the admirable."

From long experience myself, I can only say, "You betcha."

"Only cowards dare cringe."

The fears of man are many. He fears the shadow of death and the closed doors of the future. He is afraid for his friends and for his sons and of the specter of tomorrow. All his life's journey he walks in the lonely corridors of his controlled fears, if he is a man. For only fools will strut, and only cowards dare cringe. -- James Warner Bellah, "Spanish Man's Grave" in Reveille, Curtis Publishing, 1947.

"We fight an enemy that never sleeps."

"As our enemies work bit by bit to deconstruct, we must work bit by bit to REconstruct. Be mindful where we should be. Set goals. We fight an enemy that never sleeps. We must learn to sleep less." -- Mike H. at What McAuliffe Said

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
